Neighborhood guide: Owings Mills

With its main attractions teetering between a lackluster mall and a metro stop (reducing it to mere layover status), the Owings Mills area endeavors to revitalize with a mega-complex of shopping and living. The Restaurants at Owings Mills feature franchise fare. For more personality consider Nino Taco or Lenny's Deli, unless fine dining is preferred, then Cibo or Linwood's are likely options.
